Chapter 617: Still Not Coming Out to Die
Ye Fan, Mengyao, and Biyao were in a car, followed by ten women with Han Bihong, along with Qiu Wen and Shen Yaqing. They were all heading to Mao’er Mountain, the battlefield of their showdown.
The women, including Han Bihong, knew Ye Fan’s identity and strength, so they weren’t too worried. After all, Ye Fan was a Human Body Limit expert, so there was no need for excessive concern. However, until the final moment, no one could truly relax. Each person felt a considerable cloud of anxiety because it was a mortal combat, sure to be extremely dangerous. Although Ye Fan’s reputation gave them considerable comfort, Li Erye was no pushover. They believed Ye Fan would not fail, but in his duel with Li Erye, unexpected accidents could happen. Even if it was just an injury, they didn’t want to see such a thing happen to Ye Fan.
Therefore, they were still quite worried, afraid of any unacceptable accidents occurring.
After all, in a battle between two Human Body Limit experts, no one knew what might happen.
Defeating the other was very difficult, let alone a life-and-death battle; the outcome was life or death. This consequence was quite serious; no one could truly relax.
The predictable result was mutual injury, then ceasing hostility and making peace. However, since a life-and-death contract had been formed, without determining victory or death, this duel probably couldn’t fade away.
"Fanfan, are you really capable of defeating that person from the Li Family while ensuring you won’t get hurt?" Chu Biyao asked cautiously, her innocent eyes wide open.
"Relax, nothing will happen," Ye Fan assured.
He was naturally full of confidence, not considering so-called Li Erye worth his attention, though he couldn’t prevent the concerns of those around him.
"But we can’t help worrying. If you get a minor flesh wound, that’s a small problem, but we’re afraid of injuries we can’t accept," Chu Biyao said pouting, with a worried expression.
Chu Biyao’s usual wits seemed unusable at this moment. In the past, she could lighten the mood with her cuteness and playfulness, achieving good results, but the solemn situation now didn’t allow her to be heedless and act mischievously.
"Trust my strength; don’t let your mind wander. Look, I don’t have a trace of worry. Why the long face? Are you attending a funeral?" Ye Fan said helplessly.
"What funeral? Don’t say inauspicious things," Mengyao pinched Ye Fan’s waist to warn him.
"Fine, fine, I won’t say it," Ye Fan quickly replied.
"Brother-in-law, I believe in you. You can definitely knock Li Erye down. Daring to provoke my brother-in-law, that old fool Li Erye must be tired of living," Chu Biyao raised her head, seriously saying, "Brother-in-law, I haven’t even given you my first kiss yet, so you must be fine."
The group, with a tinge of worry, headed straight for their destination.
Truth be told, only Ye Fan had no worries. Even Mengyao harbored a hint of unease, not to mention Biyao and the others, who were naturally very concerned about Ye Fan’s situation.
As Ye Fan and the others’ car appeared, even before stopping, they drew the attention of many eyes.
"The one courting death is here, that bastard Ye Fan, that foolish idiot finally came," the people from the five major families mocked, looking scornfully in the direction of the car.
When Ye Fan and his group got out, Mengyao and Biyao stood on either side of him, with the other women following behind.
"This bastard really got lucky, having the first female powerhouse and the national goddess by his side. From our point of view, we’d be willing to be ghosts, as the saying goes, ’Die under a peony flower, be a ghost also romantic,’ not to mention having a group of women accompanying him."
"This kid, at death’s door, can still have such good luck with women?"
"After Li Erye kills him, we’ll definitely leave his corpse in the wilderness."
Among the five major families, those people only knew Chu Mengyao and her sister, not knowing the frightening people like Qiu Wen and the others. Envy filled their eyes as they watched Ye Fan surrounded by so many beauties, nearly driving them insane with jealousy.
"Ye Fan, today you will surely die."
"Chu Mengyao, just wait for the moment the Chu Group collapses and perishes."
Li Chenggui, Huang Jingwei, and Chen Tiande stood together, speaking word by word.
The three business moguls wore joyous smiles, eagerly awaiting the moment when Ye Fan would face his demise.
Ma Qianqiu was also present, but he could no longer blend into the camps of the other four families. Among the five major families, only Li Chenggui and the others were qualified to stand and speak together. The Zheng Family still had no one to lead the situation, and Ma Qianqiu had long become a vassal of the Chu Group, so he understood his circumstances well; his former allies could no longer accommodate him.
"If Ye Fan dies, then the Chu Group will collapse, and my Ma Family will become extinct."
"If Ye Fan knew he was bound to die, he wouldn’t have appeared so calmly. Li Erye’s reputation is huge; Ye Fan couldn’t possibly be unaware. For Chu Mengyao to accompany Ye Fan and place such a hefty gamble, there must be something they rely on."
"Could it be that Ye Fan doesn’t fear Li Erye’s reputation, or perhaps Ye Fan is an expert on the same level as Li Erye?"
"But how is that possible?"
"How could Ye Fan, so young, possess a terrifying strength equal to Li Erye’s?"
"But if Ye Fan doesn’t have enough strength, how dare he accept the challenge? How dare he risk the Chu Group?"
Ma Qianqiu found himself thinking a lot. These issues never even crossed Li Chenggui and the others’ minds, as in their eyes, anyone who fell into Li Erye’s hands would die, let alone someone as insignificant as Ye Fan.
After Ye Fan’s group appeared, apart from Ma Qianqiu pondering Ye Fan’s possible reliance, others from the five major families were all mocking either Ye Fan’s overestimation leading to his death or ridiculing Chu Mengyao’s foolishness in risking the Chu Group—it was utterly ignorant to them.
"You’re here," Zhang Lu came forward to greet them, her gaze sweeping over Ye Fan, Mengyao, and the others with a smile.
"Can he really fight against a Human Body Limit expert?" pondered Chi Qinyuan beside Zhang Lu.
After greeting Zhang Lu, Ye Fan and his group headed straight to Li Erye’s residence.
Around Li Erye’s residence, people patiently stood at different spots, waiting patiently for Li Erye’s appearance.
No one dared to disturb him.
Many eyes were fixed intently within view of Li Erye’s serene residence.
"Such a pompous display, I’m here, and he still doesn’t show up to face his death. Does he expect us to keep waiting?" Ye Fan said casually, striding toward Li Erye’s residence.
